Punch Elevation is particularly effective for certain types of acne scars, punch elevation involves the use of a punch tool rather than a typical scalpel. This device can precisely remove small quantities of tissue without affecting the skin nearby. The punch tool is used to elevate the base of the scar, making it appear much less recessed or pronounced on the face.
